This recipe is one that I haven’t cooked in a long time because I now live in Hervey Bay where we don’t have a lot of cold winter nights. This recipe is great for winter and will warm you inside…

I serve this meal with some yummy greens such as peas, broccoli and my favourite pumpkin.

Garlic Prawns

Thursday, October 13th, 2005

I love prawns and here in Hervey Bay Australia we can get them while they are fresh. There is nothing like throwing a shrimp or a prawn on the barbie to get everyone’s mouth watering… well this recipe can be cooked in a frying pan, a wok or you can cook it on the BBQ.

Enjoy my favourite Garlic Prawns recipe:

You will need:

1kg or (2lbs) green king prawns (shrimp), peeled
½ cup olive oil
4 cloves of garlic, peeled
1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
½ teaspoon salt.

De-vein prawns.

Place all ingredients in a mixing bowl and marinate for 2 hours. Heat your frying pan on 6 and add prawn mixture. Stir fry prawns until bright pink in colour.
Remove garlic cloves and serve hot.

Serves 6.

* Note - you can heat up the BBQ and toss the prawns on the heated
